My father's advice

When my father caught me...

When my father caught me smoking my first cigarette he looked at me and said:

"Son, if you are to enjoy some of this life's many vices you must also learn the danger of excess."

And thus he proceeded to sit and watch as I smoked the entire packet one drag after the other.

When my father caught me drinking my first whiskey he looked at me and said:

"Son, if you are to enjoy some of this life's many vices you must also learn the danger of excess."


And thus he proceeded to sit and watch as I drank the entire bottle one sip after another.

Alas, he never caught me in a brothel...
